In 1867, news came across the ocean from Germany, of the Honey extractor, and with the aid of a simple home-made machine, I took 1000 lbs. of honey from 20 stocks, and increased them to 35. This made quite a sensation, and numbers embarked in the new business, but when I lost all but 11 of the 35 the next winter, many said, "There! I told you how it would turn out."
